in the previous question, the change in potential energy.

A

`(GM_(E)m)/(2R_(E))`

B

`(GM_(E)m)/(4R_(E))`

C

`(GM_(E)m)/(8R_(E))`

D

`(GM_(E)m)/(R_(E))s`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

The change in potential energy is twice the change in the total energy.
`:. DeltaU=2DeltaE=2((GM_(E)m)/(8R_(E)))=(GM_(E)m)/(4R_(E))`
